Swiss tennis player Belinda Bencic said the forced break due to the global pandemic has been a blessing in disguise as she got to improve her cooking skills and was able to give her body some rest.
In a recent interview to Swiss daily Blick, Belinda, 23, who is spending the lockdown with her fitness trainer boyfriend Martin Hromkovic, said: "I feel that the break is good for my body. After Indian Wells [event], we actually wanted to stay in the USA for a long, then we changed our minds overnight. My parents returned to Switzerland and I flew to Bratislava, Slovakia to be with Martin [Hromkovic] otherwise we would have been away from each other for long.

"Yes, I started cooking and baking intensively. I used to have to call my mom for every dish and ask how to do it. Now, I can do it perfectly, I'm really proud of it! I particularly like beef dishes with vegetables or salad and pasta. I prefer to bake. My parade dessert is brownies, strudel and Slovak pastries I've already made. When Martin's grandmother brings us something sweet, it always tastes fantastic."
